I thought it would be a topic to find easily on the web, but I couldnt find a solution..
I deployed the parse-server-example on AWS Elastic Beanstalk according to the original documentation and it works perfectly. Can anyone give me a hint how to update this server to the newest version? I try to use the parse-dashboard and I get the error "server version too low".
I cloned the parse server with eb cli already. But I do not know how / which files to update.
Thanks for any hint!
In package.json, you update the version next to 'parse-server'. I think by default this is '~2.0'?
Parse Dashboard requires Parse-Server to be '>=2.1.4', HOWEVER, currently I'm having issues when changing the parse-server version, it breaks my AWS server instance. Currently have an issue open on GitHub (https://github.com/ParsePlatform/parse-server-example/issues/109#issuecomment-198001722), so keep an eye on that.
But yeah, that's where you update your Parse-Server version, I believe!
Once you've done this locally on your machine, you obviously need to deploy the updates to AWS via the Beanstalk Dashboard, as this will install/update any node modules from package.json.

I’m looking to learn about Cloud Foundry and I’m trying to get a development instance of it set up on my local Windows 10 PC. But I’m not having any luck.
I’m finding a lot of information about PCF Dev which was deprecated a while ago. I also looked at the replacement for PCF Dev, CF Dev (https://github.com/cloudfoundry-attic/cfdev). Its git page mentions that its repository is no longer receiving updates. I still went ahead and tried installing it using the instructions in the README:
cf install-plugin -r CF-Community cfdev
But the link it uses to download the plugin is broken:
Starting download of plugin binary from repository CF-Community...
Get "https://d3p1cc0zb2wjno.cloudfront.net/cfdev/cfdev-v0.0.18-rc.36-windows.exe": dial tcp: lookup d3p1cc0zb2wjno.cloudfront.net: no such host
Can anyone recommend a way to get a development instance of Cloud Foundry set up on my local machine so I can play around with it?
Thanks
Yes, steer clear of pcf-dev and cf-dev, they may still work but are definitely not getting updates so will be way out of date by now.
My understanding, although I haven't tried this process in a while, is that the way to run locally is with VirtualBox. You can run one locally using bosh-deployment & cf-deployment and Virtualbox.
For instructions installing Bosh in VirtualBox using bosh-deployment, see the Install Section to install Bosh.
With Bosh installed, follow the deployment guide to get CF installed. You can skip to step 4, since you're installing into VirtualBox. Be sure to read the entire document before you begin, however pay specific attention to this section which has specific instructions for running locally.
I am struggling about how to upload my Cloud Code files that i had on Parse.com to my Parse Server hosted on AWS EB.
So far i have:
Parse Server hosted on AWS EB. To host it on AWS i used the Orange Deploy Button which basically makes all stuff easier for people without having to install the Parse Server locally and upload it later to AWS.
iOS App written in objective C connected to the Parse server and working perfectly
Parse Dashboard locally on my mac connected to the Parse Server on AWS
The only thing that i would need is to upload all my cloud code files to the Parse Server. How could i do this? I have researched a lot over Google, stackoverflow, etc without success. There is some information but its unclear. Thanks in advance.
Finally and thanks to Ran Hassid i now have a Fully functional Parse Server on AWS with Cloud Code. For those who are in the same situation where i was, here is the answer to my question:
Go to this link here and follow all the steps (By the time i asked the question, the information provided by this link of AWS wasn't that clear as it is now. They improved the explanations and the info.)
After you finish all the previous steps from the link. You would have a Parse Server on AWS working.
Now the part of CLOUD CODE. Just create a folder in your MAC or PC wherever you like. Let's say on the desktop and called it Parse Server AWS (You can call it whatever you want)
Install the EB CLI which is the Command line interface to user Terminal (On Mac) or the equivalent on windows to work with the parse server you just set up on AWS (Similar to CloudCode with Parse CLI). The easy way to install it is running this command:
brew install awsebcli
Now open terminal on mac (or the equivalent on windows) and go to the folder that you just created on the step 3.
Run the next command. It will ask you to select the location of your parse server, and then the name.
eb init
Now this command. It will download all the files from AWS of your parse server to this folder you are in.
eb labs download
Finally, you will have a folder called Cloud where you can put all your cloud code files in.
When you finish just run the command:
eb deploy
Now you have your parse server with all your cloud code files working on AWS.
Now any change you need to make to your cloudCode files, just change the local files inside this folder just created on step 3 and run again the command from the step 9. Just exactly as you used to do with Parse Deploy command
Hopefully this information will help many people as it helped to me.
Have a happy coding!
parse-server cloud code is a bit different from Parse.com cloud code. In Parse.com we use the Parse CLI in order to modify and deploy our cloud code (parse deploy ...) in parse-server your cloud code exist under the following path of your parse project ./cloud/main.js* so your cloud code endpoint is the main.js file which by default located under the **cloud folder of your parse project. If you really want you can change this path but to keep it simple use the default location.
Now about deployment. in parse-server you need to redeploy your parse server again when you do some modification to your cloud code. Another option is to edit your cloud code remotely but from my POV its better to redeploy it
I'm working on a project that I haven't touched in about 4 months. Before everything on the deploy was working fine, but now I'm getting an error when trying to deploy an update.
Failed to pull Docker image amazon/aws-eb-python:3.4.2-onbuild-3.5.1: Pulling repository amazon/aws-eb-python time="2016-01-17T01:40:45Z" level="fatal" msg="Could not reach any registry endpoint" . Check snapshot logs for details. Hook /opt/elasticbeanstalk/hooks/appdeploy/pre/03build.sh failed. For more detail, check /var/log/eb-activity.log using console or EB CLI.
In the eb-activity log, it further states [CMD-AppDeploy/AppDeployStage0/AppDeployPreHook/03build.sh] : Activity execution failed, because: Pulling repository amazon/aws-eb-python before repeating what was shown in the UI.
The original was using a Preconfigured Docker 64bit Debian jessie v1.3.1 running Python 3.4. I've tried upgrading to the latest, which is version 2.0.6, but it never completes (don't need to get into specifics of that error, separate issue and I'd like to stay on 1.3.1 if possible). I've also tried upgrading to the latest 1.x but it has the same result of upgrading to 2.0.6.
Any ideas, or anything else I should be looking for clues?
Docker Hub has deprecated pulls from Docker clients on 1.5 and earlier. Make sure that your docker client version is at least above 1.5. See https://blog.docker.com/2015/10/docker-hub-deprecation-1-5/ for more information.
I am trying to deploy an application version but eb deploy command fails with:
ERROR: Update environment operation is complete, but with errors. For
more information, see troubleshooting documentation.
I checked the logs, made some changes to the code, committed and deployed again and guess what, it failed again. The logs indicate the same error, disregarding my changes. The error occurs in a file in this directory /var/app/ondeck/app/, when I go check, I can see the previous version is there.
I tried deploying using the Elastic Beanstalk dashboard, but somehow the instance is not receiving the new version. Can someone help me with this? Thanks.
Just had the same problem and noticed in the documentation
"Note
If you have initialized a git repository in your project folder, the EB CLI will always deploy the latest commit, even if you have pending changes. Commit your changes prior to running eb deploy to deploy them to your environment."
made the commits and worked fine
I am trying view logs of my running application on Bluemix using : "cf logs my-cool-app" command (CF version 6.11) .
If fails with :
FAILED
Loggregator endpoint missing from config file
Anyone seen this issue?
The problem appears to stem from the use of the 6.11 codebase for CF CLI and the current version of CloudFoundry that Bluemix is running. Good news is that an upcoming upgrade will alleviate the problem. We're investigating potential workarounds.
This is just an issue with the CF CLI version 6.11.
